I found one but its 2001 with a clean title and no accidents. It has 17,000 miles and he wants $2900.

How many miles does a SV650S last? Would I have to get a new engine or replace the clutch soon? Whats the price of replacing the clutch?

Can you tell me the important maintence that I would have to deal with in getting a bike with 17,000 miles?

THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. I need to act on this quick before its gone.
I think I should go to a mechanic and pay to have it inspected.

The Kelly blue book value has the price at $ 2,190. Im going to try to talk him down into that price otherwise I wont buy it. ]]> 03 + SV650 Tech xhardlinerx http://www.svrider.com/forum/showthread.php?t=158628 WTB: JC Whitney Large Cases http://www.svrider.com/forum/showthread.php?t=158627&goto=newpost Thu, 17 May 2012 04:39:09 GMT Hey guys,

I'm looking for 2 of the Large JC Whitney cases, if they include the pans they come with to snap on to that's great, if not I'll make do.

I have a trip coming up in 4 weeks so I'd greatly appreciate it if you're trying to move your trunks. ]]> Wanted... xecution819 http://www.svrider.com/forum/showthread.php?t=158627 Inexpensive AGV 1 piece size 40 (pre-rashed) http://www.svrider.com/forum/showthread.php?t=158626&goto=newpost Thu, 17 May 2012 04:13:42 GMT AGV 1 piece size 40 - $65 shipped CONUS w/pucks & undersuit
this is a re-post with my correct height; turns out i'm taller than i thought!

These were my first set of leathers and they served me well. I crashed the sh!t out of them while discovering my limitations at the track & there’s lots of road rash to prove it. Ugly as they are, they are fully functional and will pass tech without any issue.

The rashing is cosmetic. All seams are intact and there is a new heavy-duty full zipper on them which makes for easy on & off. All zippers & velco are good.

There are perforations at the chest & arms and there are zippered vents on the back. There is CE armor at the knee/shins, elbows and shoulders. There is a foam back pad and extra padding at the hips.

Included are the knee pucks and a (size S) Field Sheer undersuit – both have been used but are in good condition.

I am 5’4”, 140 lbs and wore them with an A* back protector underneath.

So, if you’re thinking about trying the track; are on a budget or just looking for a rainy day spare suit, for the $65 shipped CONUS you can’t beat it. It would cost more to rent a set of leathers for the day and you don’t have to worry about your security deposit if you crash them.

]]> Riding Gear For Sale motorpsychkill http://www.svrider.com/forum/showthread.php?t=158626 No spark or blinkers, and a mess of wires... argghh http://www.svrider.com/forum/showthread.php?t=158625&goto=newpost Thu, 17 May 2012 03:59:49 GMT Hi guys. A couple of months ago I picked up a pretty mint looking 19k '00 SV650 from craigslist that wasn't running for $1200. The dealer said it had been sitting for 3 years and just needed battery, good fuel flush and carb cleaning. I missed having something to tinker with and figured it'd be a fun project bike.



I downloaded the .pdf suzuki manual and the carbs were pretty easy. Slapped it all back together with new plugs and a fully charged, fresh Yusa reading 14.2 volts. Wasn't cranking, so I checked the 30amp fuses. one was blown, so I replaced it and vola, it started turning over... without even a hint of wanting to fire up. Knowing the fuel was good, I pulled the plugs, grounded them, and realized I was getting no spark at either cylinder. Also, all the lights works except for the blinkers. :facepalm:


So I immediately tore it all back down and went at it with the meter. All fuses are good. Removed all the connectors I could find and sprayed them with electrical contact cleaner. The igniter coils are reading 12.6v and so are the spark plug caps.



Discovered two wires that had broken loose from this connector. From the electrical diagram I discovered one was a neutral light indicator, and the other was from the kickstand switch. snipped the old connector off and just re-connected them all individually. Didn't change a thing about the spark situation.



Here's the mess of a front wire harness. I'm assuming all the loose wiring is from the speedometer that the bike was missing when I bought it. The green ignition connector didn't have any signs of corrosion or melting when I checked it (read it can cause similar starting issues.)



As you can see, the guy who owned it before me bypassed the clutch position sensor. I suspected he might not of done it right and that could be the issue, but when I disconnect these wires the bike won't turn over. I have since taped them up really well to the rest of the bundle.


After knowing that the coils had the right voltage, I began suspecting the spark generator/stator. I created one of the LED generator testers that I found a diagram for on another thread, and tried it out on the big connector that goes up the the igniter box. Although they were weak, the lights did flash back and forth when I cranked the bike over. I originally suspected that the kickstand sensor was the culprit but the bike wouldn't even turn over in that case, right? Would not having a speedometer affect anything? Could be the issue be tied in with the fact the blinkers aren't working?

I ordered a Haynes manual today with some hopes there might be a better troubleshooting guide in there than the service manual has. I'm tempted to find another stator and igniter box on ebay to see if one of them is the issue, as I'm running out of ideas here. The last owner seems to of done a lot of his own electrical work from the look of some of the wires, so I'm skeptical that it might be something easy that I'm overlooking. This "weekend project bike" as describe is turning out to be much more of a headache than I planned on it to be and hope some of you guys can offer some good insight. :dizzy: ]]> 99-02 SV650 tech Spickermayne http://www.svrider.com/forum/showthread.php?t=158625 2001 sv650n jetting help?? http://www.svrider.com/forum/showthread.php?t=158624&goto=newpost Thu, 17 May 2012 03:50:03 GMT i have a 2001 sv650n and am having trouble choosing jetting.. here is my set up nd elevation etc..

Id like either a givi top case 46 or 55 for my burgman scooter. And Id like to have a mount for same on the 2004 SV 650 N, bc I use luggage and ride both, but not at the same time ;-)

Does anyone have experience/advice on this?

Please detail all parts and for which bikes. My understanding is that for one, the Burgman requires a special plate.

I would like the trunk to be illuminated, perhaps with Givi option or aftermarket with Admore. ]]> Sport Touring / Trips moped SVRider http://www.svrider.com/forum/showthread.php?t=158621 <![CDATA[FS: Slightly Damaged AT&T iPhone 4 32GB]]> http://www.svrider.com/forum/showthread.php?t=158620&goto=newpost Thu, 17 May 2012 02:20:39 GMT http://www.ebay.com/itm/160802236002...9#ht_1498wt_79

So I decided to strip the paint and redid it. I went with a semi-gloss black which I like, but I though it might be neat to incorporate a little silver since my bike is silver. After doing it I have mixed feels. Here is the comparison between the two. I'm leaning more towards just sticking with the black because getting a clean line is harder than I thought (I took the tape off right away). Any advice on painting a clean line?

What do you all think? If I could paint a cleaner line would you like the silver more?
